The objective of this study is to analyze Venezuelan migration in Chile and the exercise of work as a human right. The methodology used is hermeneutic-documentary, which allows for the interpretation and analysis of documentary records related to the Venezuelan migration crisis and the response of the Chilean State. Migration policies, labor laws and the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers [sic] and Members of Their Families are examined, as well as the reports of international and national organizations on the situation of Venezuelan migrants in Chile. The results reveal that Venezuela's migration crisis is one of the largest in the world, with millions of people displaced due to the country's political and economic instability. The flow of Venezuelan migrants to Chile has increased significantly in recent years, which has generated a series of problems and challenges for the Chilean state as it attempts to manage this increase. This is reflected in its migration policies and its ability to provide support and protection. The massive repatriations of Venezuelans before and during the COVID-19 pandemic suggest that Chile is struggling to provide employment opportunities and basic services to migrants.
